About This Live Project

Working alongside Field Art, self proclaimed generalist Oliver Lowenstein and Sheffield City Council this is an exciting live project that combines research, engagement, design and potentially the building of a prototype for a eco-cycle stop as part of a feasibility for a redundant railway station building in Brightside, North Sheffield. – This is on the Sustrains Cycle Route and the project will frame and contextualise a Cycle Station and other facilities for Brightside.

Railway Paths are the owners of the site that is managed by the City Council. They are a company set up from British Rail Property - they own many of the closed railway lines often used for cycling and the Brightside Railway building. There are a number of interesting agendas for this project, which will also form a feasibility for a bigger project in the future.

Newsflash

Today's meeting formalised the logo; and designed the 5 window infill panel for our "renovation" of Grange Lane station... we're still waiting for the go-ahead on whether we can add stuff to the building itself - phonecall tonight at 6:30pm for it to be confirmed...

Other breaking news... Alex has just ordered our t-shirts and next week's school consultation has been confirmed. Watch this space!

Infill panel The definition of masonry infill includes partial-height, perforated and full-height masonry placed in the concrete frames. Any masonry that constrains the expected lateral deformation of the frame alone, without infill, changes the lateral stiffness of the system and the shear demand on the structure and the frame members, especially the columns. All effects of the infills must be included in the three-dimensional structural model. For more info visit at www.composite-panel.co.uk
